We have experienced our share of sickness this winter season, but we are in good hands. See, we have a pair of doctors living among us... Continue Reading...
Double
Photography 101. I had to go with an older photo of our, now 4-year-old, twins. There's no double that I love more than this double. The twins at one month old. Continue Reading...
Today’s Cure: Healthy Imagination
After a relatively sleepless night dealing with coughs, colds, fevers, and a case of croup, the twins and I are settled in for the day. We received 3 or 4 inches of wet snow overnight. It'll likely disappear by the end of the day, but there's still several inches of frozen snow in the yard under the fresh stuff. We decided to keep the twins home from pre-pre school this morning.

Potholes and Puddles
Once in a while, quite often actually, I think it's good to just let kids be kids, regardless of my personal feelings on cleanliness, order, and things along those lines. Yes, we have a huge pothole in our driveway. Yes, the kids have assisted in its growth more than any other natural factor. Yes, Theodore does have his boots on the wrong feet, but it didn't slow him or his imagination down at Continue Reading...
Another Visit to Gould Hill Farm
We made our annual trip to Gould Hill Farm in Contoocook, NH to pick apples. And, as always it was a lot of fun. The day was gorgeous and the scenes, in and around the orchard were just as beautiful. Continue Reading...
